Here's what I would suggest:\n\n1. For debugging output:\n\n $ echo 'prefix=/usr/local' >>config.mak; # or whatever prefix you use\n $ git describe\n $ gcc --version\n $ wget 'http://download.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/128067/128068'\n $ git am -3 128068\n $ make\n $ bin-wrappers/git checkout m\n\n2. To track down the issue, if you like to read assembler:\n\n $ make builtin/checkout.s\n $ vi checkout.s\n\nGood luck,\nJonathan\n"},{"id":"152946","messageId":"20101008041100.GA3272@sigill.intra.peff.net","threadId":"25385","inReplyTo":"20101008031818.GC992@burratino","subject":"Re: fatal: BUG: dashless options don't support arguments","fromName":"Jeff King","fromEmail":"peff@peff.net","sentAt":"2010-10-08T04:11:00Z","receivedAt":"2010-10-08T04:11:00Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"peff@peff.net","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/45925?v=4"},"body":"On Thu, Oct 07, 2010 at 10:18:18PM -0500, Jonathan Nieder wrote:\n\n> > Ki:$ git checkout master\n> > fatal: BUG: dashless options don't support arguments\n> \n> Strange indeed.

Interesting, too,\nthat it seems to happen with multiple commands (it looked like it\nhappened with \"git push foo\" in the pastebin from the irc log).\n\n> 2.

I think a better course of action is to find out which option is\nbeing munged (from step 1 above), and then try running it under gdb with\na watch set on that option struct. Assuming it's easily reproducible of\ncourse.\n\n-Peff\n"},{"id":"152952","messageId":"4CAEC140.20905@viscovery.net","threadId":"25385","inReplyTo":"AANLkTikqB-EvE6uxgBmutssJoiH2RiPjSxtjbo++Jj-X@mail.gmail.com","subject":"Re: fatal: BUG: dashless options don't support arguments","fromName":"Johannes Sixt","fromEmail":"j.sixt@viscovery.net","sentAt":"2010-10-08T06:59:12Z","receivedAt":"2010-10-08T06:59:12Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"j6t@kdbg.org","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/14810926?v=4"},"body":"Am 10/8/2010 2:06, schrieb Brian Zitzow:\n> Hello,\n>  I was asked to report this bug error...
